ST. PAUL, MIMI, Feb. Z, 1887.
The legislature resumed session at half
past two this afternoon, the Senate having
had vacation from Friday while the
House put in full days work on Saturday.
Notwithstanding this large number of the
members of the House went home over Sun
day and the hotels wore the air of desertion
yesterday. Now that the high license ques-
exciting issue before the legislature
and the members can take the chances:ofca
snow blockade and 60 home over Sunday
There is good deal of talk relative to get
the Legislature to hold a thirty days session
Immediately on the conclusion of this one.
The avalanche Of bills now pending convinc-
es everyone that a great deal will be left in
an unfinished condition whom tho sixty
dS{s Of have extra aPsssan is an" tSe results t5s
I doubt, however, whether it will mate
rialize. The people have voted in favor of
biennial sessions Of sixty days and rather
imagine the Governor will take the ground
that that is what they wanted when they so
voted. Governor Hubbard took that posi-
ton though there was a strong pressure
wrought on him to call an extra session but
he declined on the ground that the people
had voted for biennial sessions and he did
| not propose to thwart their wishes by max
ing them annual.
The introduction of new bills was the
| leading feature of business this afternoon.
| There have been nearly one thousand bills
| introduced in the two branches since the
| Legislature began and over 800 of these are
probably, entirely devoted to local matters
and of no general interest outside of speci-
ic locality. There are indications too, that
| the State tax will have to be increased a
little this year to meet the heavy appropria-
ton accruing owing to the increase Of our
institutions. The Insane Asylum at
Rochester has in a bill for $4,000 fol
| additions.

Town AND CoUNrRY.-Every
town ought to cultivate the conf
dence and good will of the country
people. The people of the country,
also. ought to take a pride in their
county seat. The interests of the
twoare reciprocal. Whateverb builds
up the town builds up the country
and rice rersd. For one section OF
the country to refuse to give its
support to a measure because it
would only build up the town is
not unlike the reasoning of the dar-
key, who went bare headed in the
rain, while he carried his hat under
his arm, for the reason that he was
s.massa's Niger" and bought the
hat with his own money.
There is an antagonism between
the town and the country, every
where justified neither by facts nor
reason; but it grows largely out of
the sensitiveness OF the people from
the country, who are palmer in
their dress and manners than the
more stylish looking denizen of the
towns, are apt to imagine themselves
the subjects of ridieule when
brought into contrast with their
more gaudily arrayed fellow coun-
trymen. They are apt also, from
their different methods in the con-
duct of business, alert in the watch
full apprehension of being over
reached, and inclined to think that
the town people arrogate to them
selves kind of a superiority not
10 be quietly admitted.
Town life certainly does beget
different habits and different speech
The people are packed together in
such close quarters that they rest
against each other and acquire a
superficial polish by attrition.-
Constant intercourse with the cit
liens OF other places and other couI
tries also influence their modes of
speech, dress, and fashion, for man
is a very initiative animal, and
impatient of monotony. He needs,
and must have variety. And the
town man is not permitted the in
dependence of the country man.
He is compelled to conform to the
universal standard of town life.
The freedom OF the country to do
Is he pleased, go and come when
he pleases, is denied him. He is
bound to an artificialty of being
from which his more happy friend
of the country is free.
But he is not so bad man as he
Is thought to be- How can he be
when the stock from which he comes
is so largely rural? The man who
is the leader in merchantile bust
ness, the man who is prominent at
the bar, the man to whom you in
trust with your spiritual guidance,
is he who came into the town long
ago, the crude country lad, with
his jeans suit and his wool hat
Depend upon it that while his
clothes are finer than they used to
be, and his manners more stylish.
he bears within him the same heart
lac brought into town in his less
sophisticated days.
Town and country, in truth, are
one and indivisible, different in ex-
ternals, alike in the essentials of
feeling and interest. Let each of.
them understand this. and respect
and trust each other accordingly.
